COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTIONLittle John’s local bees create a spring wildflower-honey that lends a sweet, earthy complexity to a traditional style of beer (triple) with a balancing snap of ginger in the finish.

650 ml.2013 bottle served in a Belgian snifter.
Lightly hazy dark amber with semi-durable head.
Aroma: floral notes; a hint of honey, bubblegum, biscuits and faint citrus.
Flavor: sweet baked bread, honey, faint citrus and wheat. The ginger is subdued and barely shows even in the aftertaste. A bit sweet, as expected.
Feel: Medium body; medium-low carbonation.
O: honey is subdued but pervasive, being evident in the nose and taste, and even seeming to lend a hand in coloration. Compared to my hopes for this beer, it is slightly high in sweetness and a bit low in complexity.

A good beer that comes as described. Love the balance of the ginger and honey as together it does help to deliver a nice earthy beer. The taste brings with it thoughts of this being a good beer to enjoy outside around nature. Good copper hue and a nice smooth finish.

Rated on 7-30-2012 (Bottle) The appearance is a small semi-fizzy ivory head with a short retention, transparent amber body, very fizzy, fast rising carbonation, and one ring of lacing. The aroma is honey, ginger, spice, fruity, floral, and earthy. The flavor is sweet, malt, earthy, fruity, and honey. This beer has a dry finish. The mouthfeel is smooth, watery and thin. This beer is medium bodied. This beer is easy to drink given the ABV which is hidden. It is very light bodied for the style along with a very dry finish. This beer is worth trying.

Deep gold. The aroma of ginger is prominent. Taste - as expected, honey and ginger. Thick, oily texture. Malty. Low hops. This is pretty good but the ginger just overpowers.

650 ml. Lightly hazy amber with a lasting ring of bubbles. Nose is earthy honey, bubblegum, toast, light citrus and resin. Taste is honey, orange toffee, wheat, earthy tea leaf and a touch of resin. Thankfully the ginger is subdued and only shows a bit in the long finish. Medium body is smooth with low carbonation and to the sweet side.
